If one had to use any word to describe the current situation at the North Peak of the Yuhu Sect, it would definitely be depression.
But at this moment, in this depression, a ragged figure appeared. Although this person is described as embarrassed, his long face is particularly noticeable. He is none other than Lu Chun, who was imprisoned here a few days ago.
"Damn it! I didn't expect that the evil thief Yun Lang would kill Xu Yi just to put the blame on me... I just hope that boy He Qing won't be impulsive!"
It has been some time since Lu Chun was imprisoned in Beifeng, but during this period, no one came to bring him food, so he had already guessed that Yunlang must have been causing trouble and wanted him to survive here. Destroyed itself.
But fortunately, the blood power that Yun Lang left in his body has gradually dissipated over time, allowing him to operate the Zheng Qi Needle without any scruples and restore the injuries to normal.
Although the North Peak is in poor condition today, the old magic circle still remains here. Now that Lu Chun didn't have the token, he naturally had no hope of getting out, so he was forced to be trapped here.
Although he had been forced to isolate himself from the outside world and could no longer participate in the chaos that followed, the sudden "seclusion" actually made him feel a lot more relaxed, and he no longer had the initial rush to get out.
"Bah, bah, bah! What kind of tattered fruit is this? Is it no better than that weed?" Although Lu Chun was extremely disgusted, he still kept eating one bite after another. After all, looking at the empty Beifeng, Only the fruit forest in front of him could sustain him.
"It's strange to say that there was nothing left on this North Peak when it was clearly burned. Why did a fruit forest grow here?" Lu Chun threw a few fruit cores on the ground casually and couldn't help but muttered to himself.
"I heard that Wu Fan showed abnormal conditions after entering the North Peak... Could it be that there are secrets hidden in the North Peak? If I had known this, I should have asked Hong Buzhu more when I saw him... "
As soon as Lu Chun thought that he couldn't escape from here anyway, so he might as well conduct an in-depth investigation here, he walked towards the mountain.
…
"Senior brother, what is so urgent?" Shi Xuewen asked anxiously on the East Peak. She had been uneasy ever since she received the news from Yun Lang that day. She was relieved a little until she saw that Yun Lang was safe and sound.
"Junior Sister Xuewen..." Yunlang didn't expect Shi Xuewen to return so quickly, and his expression was a little strange. However, he reacted very quickly, and hurriedly put away his movements and came forward, "Junior sister, I have heard some bad rumors recently, and our Yuhu Sect is afraid that things will change!"
"Brother, what do you mean by this?" Shi Xuewen had been kept in the dark, so naturally she didn't know what Yun Lang's words meant.
"Junior sister, you must not know about the Five Elements Cauldron, right?" Yun Lang sighed and said softly.
"Five Elements Cauldron?" Shi Xuewen muttered, then frowned slightly and said, "I've seen this thing before, what's wrong?"
"Ah..." Yun Lang's train of thought was completely disrupted by Shi Xuewen's words, with a look of disbelief on his face: "What? You said you have seen it! Where have you seen it?"
"When I went to Linlang Market before, we met there by chance. What's wrong?" Shi Xuewen seemed to be saying something ordinary, but her expression was disappointed.
Looking back on those days, Shi Xuewen had not yet joined the Yuhu Sect, and her temperament was innocent and playful, and she often carried her family behind her back to go out for a living.
When she went to Linlang Market, she was unfortunately involved in a riot. Although she finally managed to escape from the crisis, several of her close friends died here!
It was precisely because this incident hit her hard that she left the family alone and joined the Jade Pot Sect, and her temper gradually became colder.
However, Shi Xuewen never told anyone about these things, so Yunlang naturally didn't know about them. He originally thought that Shi Xuewen had seen her in the Yuhu Sect, and his heart was beating wildly. He was relieved when he heard the words Linlang Market.
Shi Xuewen didn't want to be immersed in such painful memories for too long, but her chest rose and fell a few times before she calmed down. Seeing Yun Lang's expression changing, she continued to ask: "Brother, what did you mean when you just said that the Jade Pot Sect was going to change the sky?" mean?"
Seeing that Shi Xuewen didn't seem to have any understanding, Lu Chun told the story that the sects such as Wu Tu Ku, Tai Yi Pavilion, and Jian Xing Ju were going to unite to destroy the Yu Hu Sect.
"Junior sister, now the Jade Hu Sect cannot protect itself. Why don't you take this opportunity to leave here and save your life!" After explaining, Yun Lang spoke again to persuade.
But Shi Xuewen didn't pay any attention to Lu Chun's persuasion: "Brother, are you saying that the Five Elements Cauldron is the culprit of this incident? But...what does this have to do with our Jade Pot Sect! I have some friendship with Jian Xingju over there , I’ll go find them and explain it to them right away!”
"Junior sister, stay!" Seeing Shi Xuewen about to leave, Yun Lang hurriedly stepped forward and blocked her, "Junior sister, I don't know that this is just an unreasonable thing, but there is no need to blame someone! The Jade Pot Sect has been a thorn in their side for a long time. Even if you can explain it clearly this time, what about in the future? They will have other reasons to attack us in the future!"
"But..." Shi Xuewen was still a little unwilling.
Before Shi Xuewen could finish speaking, Yun Lang hurriedly interrupted: "There's nothing to be ashamed of...our Yuhu Sect is currently weak in strength and has been watched by others for a long time. It's just a matter of time before something like this happens."
"Then senior brother...how did you know in advance?" Shi Xuewen nodded, and then asked for no reason.
"Ah... this..." Yun Lang was stunned for a moment, thoughts racing in his mind, and then his eyes flashed: "It's Hong Feng! It was Junior Brother Hong Feng from Sword Star Residence who told me!"
When Shi Xuewen heard this, she nodded slightly without any doubt, and then her face suddenly became serious: "Then we, the disciples of the Yuhu Sect..."
Yun Lang shook his head and smiled bitterly: "The Yuhu Sect is at a critical moment, and there must be many informants hiding around! I'm worried that if the news is spread now, it will inevitably arouse the suspicion of those people, and I'm afraid they will advance the action! And we are unprepared now. , the consequences are naturally unimaginable!”
"But if we don't tell the truth, won't we still fall into a passive situation when the action begins?" Shi Xuewen said with a solemn expression.
"Junior sister, this is where I'm in trouble..." Yun Lang said helplessly.
"I will find a way..." Shi Xuewen said nothing and left towards the south peak with an expressionless face.
When Shi Xuewen completely disappeared from Yunlang's sight, the latter's expression turned gloomy: "It seems...this matter can no longer be delayed..."
"Mr. Nan Jin clearly said that he could control that boy Wu Fan, so why did he still let him enter the hidden forest?" Yun Lang pinched the jade token in his hand, his expression was gloomy and uncertain. I always feel a little uneasy.
"Lu Chun... I hope you can survive for a while! You can see that in order to kill you, I will sacrifice the entire Yuhu Sect to accompany you, hahaha..." Yun Lang covered his heart and squeezed out a smile...
…
"What are you doing here?" A cold voice suddenly sounded from outside the crowd.
"Ouch!" Hearing this voice, a group of Nanfeng disciples retreated to the side like frightened birds.
"Elder? Why are you back?" The disciple in the middle of the crowd is not unfamiliar. This person is Zhu Xu from before. It stands to reason that Zhu Xu's strength is somewhat stronger than that of Lu Bai, He Jiang, and He Hai who won. It's a pity that he has an arrogant personality and underestimates the enemy, so he fails to stand out.
Zhu Xu looked behind Shi Xuewen as he spoke, wondering if these disciples were eliminated so quickly, right?
Shi Xuewen couldn't tell what he was thinking, but she was so preoccupied at the moment that she didn't pay too much attention to it. She just said lightly: "Suddenly I remembered that some important matters have not been dealt with."
After saying that, she looked towards the center of the crowd and saw a box sitting neatly on the ground. She also pointed to it with a puzzled look on her face: "What is this?"
Upon seeing this, Zhu Xu quickly dispersed the disciples on both sides and led the Nanfeng elders closer: "Elder, this box was sent by the Xifeng disciples a few days ago..."
"Sent from Xifeng?" Shi Xuewen frowned upon hearing this, "What's in it?"
"Well..." Zhu Xu scratched his head in embarrassment, "Elder, we are worried about some conspiracy on the Xifeng side. We have been discussing whether to open it for the past few days..."
Shi Xuewen was speechless for a while, and she was about to pry open the lid of the box as soon as she lifted the scabbard.
"Elder! Be careful!" Zhu Xu exclaimed when he saw this, and couldn't help but take a few steps back.
Although Shi Xuewen didn't have any timidity, she was worried that the disciples around her would be harmed, so she squeezed her fingers to create a layer of cold air around the box, and then continued her previous actions.
"Huh?" When the lid of the box was opened, a faint fragrance wafted out from it, making the nearby disciples twitch their noses and feel relaxed and happy.
Seeing that there was no danger in the box, Shi Xuewen waved away the cold air, and the disciples around her hurriedly came closer.
"No wonder this box is so heavy, it turns out there are so many mud balls in it!"
"I just said that Xifeng has no good intentions. Why did they send a box of mud pills for nothing? Isn't this a provocation?"
"Why do I feel more and more as I look at it that there seems to be some kind of elixir in it?"
"Elixir? If it were really an elixir, how could it be treated so casually?"
"Well... that's true... Elder, don't worry, I'll get rid of this box of mud pills right away!" Listening to the chattering of the disciples next to him, Zhu Xu just summed it up briefly, patted his chest and vowed, and then he was about to Go forward and get rid of this box of stuff.
"How many times have I told you not to judge a book by its appearance, but you just can't listen." Shi Xuewen sheathed her sword, blocked Zhu Xu's body, and said with a stern expression: "The same goes for this thing. Even though it looks unremarkable, it is indeed It’s an elixir!”
"Ah?" Zhu Xu was shocked when he heard this and couldn't help but look at the box a few more times.
"Since you said this was sent by a disciple of Xifeng, did the person who came here tell you the efficacy of this elixir?" Shi Xuewen asked, knowing very little about elixirs.
Zhu Xu's face turned red when he heard this. When the Xifeng disciple came before, he thought the latter was here to cause trouble and drove him away directly. How could he allow the latter to explain? At this time, I felt guilty after hearing this.
"Elder...since Xifeng can deliver the elixir openly, he must not dare to tamper with it, so you will know what elixir is right after you try it!"
Zhu Xu gritted his teeth, took out a pill and swallowed it with a gulp...
